2 September 2022 - Genesis is pleased to announce Electrified GV70, which is set for local launch in September.
Electrified GV70 will provide a spacious and refined, zero-emission range halo model, sitting above GV70 3.5T AWD SPORT with Luxury Pack, while setting a new standard for electric luxury SUVs.
Electrified GV70 features a twin motor AWD system that delivers a peak output of 360kW (with Boost Mode) and an instantaneous 700Nm of torque, giving it the capability for awe-inspiring 4.2-second 0-100km/h acceleration.
A 77.4kWh power battery offers 445km (WLTP) of long-distance touring range and can charge from 10 to 80 percent in as little as 18 minutes when plugged into a 350kW DC fast charger.
Electrified GV70 builds on its conventionally powered counterpart’s progressive style and spacious interior to bring new appeal, with its outstanding all-electric performance and an array of EV-exclusive technologies.
Electrified GV70 will be offered in one highly equipped ‘Luxury Package’ trim grade, in alignment with Genesis’ brand promise to provide vehicles that want for nothing.
Genesis Motor’s vision for electrification will give rise to three new EVs this year, with GV60, Electrified G80 and Electrified GV70 all set to launch locally in September.
Connal Yan, Head of Genesis Motors Australia, said that alternative powertrains are at the core of the Genesis product development strategy, with the goal of offering eco-friendly mobility solutions in every segment of the portfolio.
“We are immensely excited to introduce three new all-electric models this year, as the first realisation of our vision of creating a sustainable mobility future with electrification front and centre,” Mr. Yan said.
“The arrival of the progressive Electrified GV70, along with the dedicated electric GV60 and Electrified G80, will represent an audacious stride into that future,” he said.

POWERTRAIN & TECHNOLOGY
Electrified GV70’s progressive, zero-emission EV powertrain technology is designed to scintillate customers, with its potent performance, ample range and rapid-charging capability.
With twin 180kW, 350Nm electric motors - one driving the front wheels and one driving the rear wheels - the all-wheel drive Electrified GV70 delivers total maximum outputs of 360kW (with Boost Mode) and 700Nm, accelerating from rest to 100km/h in 4.2 seconds.
In addition, Electrified GV70 features the Genesis SUV-specific e-Terrain Mode, which enables a stable driving experience across the spectrum of driving conditions.
Electrified GV70’s range per charge of the 77.4kWh power battery is 445km (WLTP) and, when plugged into a 350kW rapid charger, a charge from 10 to 80 percent takes just 18 minutes.
The application of a 400V/800V multi-rapid charging system lets customers utilise a variety of 400V and 800V charging infrastructures without the need for an additional converter.
Both interior and exterior Vehicle to Load (V2L) functions makes GV70 a mobile power source that can charge other electronic devices from its battery. The V2L function supports a 3.6kW power supply to give customers the freedom to use electricity wherever they go.
A Disconnector Actuator System (DAS) in Electrified GV70 can automatically connect or disconnect the motor and drive shaft in consideration of various conditions, such as driving mode and vehicle speed. The system enables seamless switching between 2WD and AWD, reducing unnecessary power loss for optimum efficiency.
Electrified GV70’s driving experience is further enhanced with a host of cutting-edge technologies.
The Smart Regenerative Braking System 2.0 regenerates energy through the braking system based on real-time navigation data and traffic conditions.
An i-PEDAL (Intelligent Pedal) driving mode lets the driver accelerate, decelerate and stop using only the accelerator pedal.
Active Noise Control-Road (ANC-R) technology features in Electrified GV70 to provide a refined driving experience.
The technology significantly reduces the noise level experienced by occupants, by measuring and analysing road noises - using sensors and microphones - and then simultaneously creates sounds at opposite phase to cancel them.
Preview Electronic Control Suspension (Preview ECS) also features in Electrified GV70 to deliver optimal ride comfort.
The suspension system uses the front camera to gather data that informs instantaneous suspension damping adjustments to account for bumps and potholes ahead.
EXTERIOR
Electrified GV70 builds on the Audacious, Progressive, Distinctly Korean style of the conventional GV70, with electrified-exclusive elements that provide a unique look - while supporting smooth aerodynamics and the cooling requirements of an EV.
A stylish front fascia treatment incorporates an evolved, aerodynamic G-Matrix Genesis-signature Crest Grille featuring a hidden EV charging port, creating a minimalist yet sophisticated look.
This is echoed by the minimalist horizontal shape of the rear bumper, with a simplified, tailpipe-free skid plate designed to highlight the model’s emissions-free credentials, and a progressive Genesis-signature Two-Line Quad Lamp taillight design completing an appealing visual presence.
A total of 13 exterior colours is offered to let every customer create their own unique Electrified GV70. There are nine standard gloss finish colours and four optional matte finish colours.
Newly introduced Atacama Copper paint is available in both gloss and matte finishes, named for the Atacama Desert plateau in Chile, which is famous for being the driest non-polar desert in the world, with a Mars-like otherworldly appearance.
INTERIOR
Electrified GV70 draws inspiration from a Korean aesthetic philosophy that emphasises the ‘Beauty of White Space’ to create a driver-oriented, intuitive and minimalist cabin.
Smart packaging features throughout Electrified GV70, such as a second-row that offers space comparable to conventional GV70 (even with the underfloor batteries) through a lowering of the centre tunnel and other improvements.
Electrified GV70’s interior reflects the sustainable ambitions of the model, and the broader Genesis commitment to developing sustainable mobility solutions.
This includes the use of a range of eco-friendly materials each featuring a high-quality finish that highlights the Genesis vision of sustainable luxury.
Electrified GV70 is available with an Obsidian Black interior, or a choice of two-tone Pine Grove Green & Ocean Blue, or Glacier White & Ocean Blue (featuring copper piping).
Each interior colour combination features Nappa leather upholstery with luxury quilting and ‘Mountain type’ 3D backlit trim.
